      Pretty done with the general painting (still finishing the wall climbing girl), now I'm moving on to light, edges and general perfecting. Pretty happy with the characters and I think the lighting will unify the picture a lot more. Any thoughts?

        @bharris This looks great! One thing that pops out though is the numbers above the chalk board do not follow the perspective established in the rest of the piece - i think the high contrast of the white background behind the numbers makes it stand out a little more than it would otherwise too - looking forward to seeing the finished piece - great concept!

          Thanks Kevin! I'm testing out the posters and the colors. I don't want them to stand out too much of course!

            I can't wait to be done... lol. Still working on the light and border. I'm debating putting a back pack below the climbing girl, but I didn't know it it would get too cluttered.

              It looks absolutely fantastic @bharris ..you should be proud 🙂 Love it! I don't think it needs anything else going on, there's plenty already! And the lighting looks great.

                  @bharris Wow - this looks absolutely terrific! I think the time you spent on going through the color studies and implementing input on the laser eye lights etc was all time very well spent. I agree with @Dulcie that I don't think you need to add the back pack. I like how Haven is clearly isolated which makes her stand out. If you begin to add to much overlapping behind her she might get lost. I say you have already hit a home run here!

                    @Rich-Green Thank you so much Rich, I really appreciate your comments! You're both right, it would be too much behind her. 🙂

                              Definitely unique idea! I love the characters. I know that my son, when he was young, would probably have loved to become a toxic waste super hero 🙂

                                    @Chip-Valecek Thank you! It finally came together.

                                    @Marsha-Kay-Ottum-Owen lol thanks! I came up with it in that state of almost sleep... Wasn't sure it was actually a good idea at the time though.

                                    @Carrie and @Charlie-Eve-Ryan Thank you!

                                      This turned out so amazing! Great work @bharris. Their is so much story going on with each person that I keep circling around and around finding new gems. So good.

                                        Such a great concept!
                                        There's so much interesting stuff going on in the image, but without making it look too cluttered. I really feel compelled to stay and look at all the stuff happening in there!

                                            I really enjoyed Will's critique for 3rd Thursday, an his changes would make a large improvement!

                                            I'm curious though if this piece works as a vignette for my portfolio if I just change the girl's pink shirt? Or do you think I should make all the changes and improve the focal point? From my understanding he was pointing me more toward a spot which was the assignment, but I think it can work outside that.

                                            Let me know your thoughts! 😃
